The Tetikçinin Oğlu (Shooter’s Son) series brought a breath of fresh air to Tuesday evenings. For many viewers, Şevket Çoruh, who plays the character of İskender, emerges as the reason for watching the series.
The character of İskender, who founded a crime organization, has Korkmaz as the hitman. In fact, Korkmaz and İskender are friends for 40 years, but this friendship has turned into a partnership of interests.
Korkmaz is also struggling to find his wife and son, whom he has been looking for for years. Hope is what keeps him alive.
The most striking scene of the first episode was the encounter of Korkmaz with his son Metin, whom he had been looking for for 22 years. However, Metin is also known as the murderer of İskender’s son.
So İskender’s only goal is to kill Metin and take his revenge. Of course, he will not forgive his 40-year-old friend Korkmaz for his betrayal.
Those who watch a master name like Şevket Çoruh in such an impressive character are also questioning. I wonder why the actor, who played the character of commissioner Mesut in the Arka Sokaklar series for 16 years, did not choose to take part in other projects years ago?
There is still an audience waiting for Şevket Çoruh in the TV series Arka Sokaklar (Back Streets). There are also millions of viewers who keep the character of Mesut in mind and remember many of his scenes.
However, there is another fact that those who have seen Şevket Çoruh in the TV series “Tetikçinin Oğlu” have the thought that a talent that can enter the hearts of millions on the screen with different characters over the years may have been wasted in Arka Sokaklar.
Although it is a success to play the same character in a series for many years, if this actor is capable of affecting millions in different roles, being in the same project for years actually means a loss for those who love him.
